Willis Counseling & Consulting

History

Established in 2008.

Our Old Town location just opened in 2015. We are excited to serve our lake front neighbors! We at WillisCC believe therapy doesn’t have to be old and boring-​if you aren’t making progress then its time to change therapists. WillisCC was established to create a première therapy practice in a time when guests want something innovative, practical and post-​modern. This includes accountability and action to make change that is meaningful. The company is led by diverse leaders who value a global perspective who want to bring the therapy space into 2016.

We believe to be human is to experience pain. Our staff view suffering as a part of the human experience but do not believe suffering is the identity of our humanity. We don’t just sit and listen, we push our guests towards actionable life change. Therefore, helping our guests hold their pain lightly & with compassion while getting back moving on their values path is essentially what therapy is all about.
